FIRST LOVE
Suddenly thrust
unexpectedly
To where time does not exist
basking in feelings
Long forgotten
I find myself invincible
Untouched by seasons gone by
And then you are here
a gasp leaves my throat
Or is it a sob
for what was lost
Pulled away; no not yet
I did not warn you
Of your tragedy to come
diminishing you forever
Left with memories
like ashes
Falling through my fingers
only the memory
Of that summer
when you gently
Helped a boy become a man
Wow...this begs a backstory, but also touches the reader with deep connections.
